This repository contains all of the data and code to replicate "Delegation in hiring: Evidence from a two-sided audit."
    
To produce the tables, run the code in the following order:
  
 * Cleaning
 	* do 1_clean_recruiterdata.do
 	* do 1_clean_candidate_survey.do
  	* do 1_clean_manager_survey.do 
  
* Analysis
	* do 2_analyze_recruiter_data.do
	* do 2_analyze_corr_a.do
	* do 2_analyze_corr_b.do
	* do 2_analyze_corr_c.do
	* do 2_analyze_OES.do
  
* The above replicates all of the tables and figures in the main text. If you are interested in replicating tables and figures in the appendix, run the following:
	* do 2_analyze_Census.do
	* do 2_analyze_attrition.do
	* do 2_calculate_IRR_recruiters.do
	* do 2_calculate_IRR_candidates.do
	* do 2_analyze_screener_heterogeneity.do
	* do 2_analyze_accuracy_about_managers.do
	* do 2_analyze_accuracy_about_candidates.do
